Integrating Runscope with Splunk Cloud

Splunk Cloud delivers Operational Intelligence as a cloud service, enabling you to gain critical insights from your machine data without the need to manage any infrastructure. Splunk Cloud offers the features of award-winning Splunk Enterprise as an easy-to-use cloud service.

Enable the HTTP Event Collector (HEC)

Follow the instructions provided by Splunk to enable the HEC data input on your Splunk Cloud instance. HEC is not enabled by default. Make note of your instance host name and the configured port for use later on.

Create an HEC Token

Once HEC is enabled, create a token using the instructions provided by Splunk. You may want to create a separate index dedicated to Runscope event data. The index used cannot be configured within Runscope, so make sure you have the correct index and other settings set in Global Settings or the token config.

Connecting Your Accounts

Once you have your instance host name/port number and an HEC token, you can connect your Splunk Clound instance with Runscope.
